Definitions
- the application relates to systems and methods for allocating and transmitting uplink data block transmissions with Piggy-backed ACK/NACK bitmap field.
- Some wireless telecommunications systems employ a time division multiplexing scheme.
- the transmission time available is divided into slots.
- time is divided into sets of eight slots. Each set of eight slots is collectively referred to as a frame.
- assignment refers to signalling used to identify slots that are made available to a given mobile station.
- the set of slots assigned to a unidirectional data flow is referred to as a TBF (temporary block flow).
- the TBF is a unidirectional entity: an uplink TBF relates to uplink assignment/allocation and a downlink TBF relates to downlink assignment/allocation.
- an allocation refers to the actual reception/transmission of data on specific slots.
- An allocation will necessarily be a subset or all of the available assignment. Multiple mobile stations can have the same or overlapping assignments, and allocation will be used to avoid collisions.
- the slot numbering for the uplink is offset from the slot numbering for the downlink such that a downlink slot and an uplink slot with the same number can be assigned and allocated on both the downlink and the uplink without requiring the mobile station to receive and transmit at the same time.
- the same physical time slot in a given frame can be assigned and/or allocated for either the uplink or the downlink, but not both.
- slots in a given frame having the same slot number can be assigned and allocated on both the uplink and downlink.
- a slot may be allocated to a mobile station over multiple consecutive frames.
- a BTTI (Basic Transmit Time Interval) block consists of a slot allocated over four consecutive frames.
- frame 1 slot 1, frame 2 slot 1, frame 3 slot 1 and frame 4 slot 1 make up a BTTI block.
- a frame is approximately 5 ms in duration, such that a BTTI block will span over four frames, or a 20 ms interval.
- a BTTI TBF is a TBF which uses BTTI blocks.
- An RTTI (Reduced Transmit Time Interval) block uses the same frame structure introduced above, but an RTTI block consists of a pair of slots during a first frame, and a pair of slots during the next frame such that an RTTI block will span over two frames or a 10 ms interval.
- An RTTI TBF is a TBF which uses RTTI blocks. The transmission interval for an RTTI block compared to a BTTI block is reduced by half.
- a radio block is the collection of 4 bursts that is used sent to send an RLC/MAC data block, PACCH block, etc. All transmissions referred to in this description are sent as 4-burst radio blocks.
- BTTI basic transmission time interval
- RTTI reduced transmission time interval
- a radio block period is then the duration of 4 or 2 TDMA frames in which a radio block is sent.
- An allocation for an uplink transmission allocates a BTTI block to the same timeslot in each of four TDMA frames or allocates an RTTI block to two timeslots in each of two TDMA frames.
- FIG. 1A An example of a downlink frame 30 and an uplink frame 32 each divided into 8 timeslots is shown in Figure 1A .
- the downlink frame is offset in time from the uplink frame such that a mobile station can receive on a timeslot #n in a downlink frame and transmit a response on a timeslot having the same timeslot #n in an uplink frame without having to transmit and receive simultaneously.
- the network transmits a USF (uplink state flag) during a downlink BTTI block in a downlink slot of a preceding block period.
- the mobile station is thereby allocated a timeslot for uplink transmission of an uplink BTTI block that has the same number as that of the downlink slot used to transmit the USF.
- Figure 1A shows an example of downlink transmission of a single BTTI block, indicated at 40 which includes the first slot of each of four consecutive downlink frames and a BTTI uplink allocation at 40 which includes the first slot of each of four consecutive uplink frames.
- the four downlink slots #1 of the previous block period also contain a USF for the mobile station that allocates BTTI uplink block 41 to the mobile station.
- USFs in BTTI are sent with BTTI blocks and allocate an uplink block in the BTTI radio block period after the USF is sent.
- Figure 1B shows an example of an RTTI downlink transmission generally indicated at 50 and an RTTI uplink transmission generally indicated at 51.
- an RTTI block is transmitted to the mobile station in the downlink on timeslots #1,#2, and, by means of USF signalling on timeslots #1,#2 in the previous radio block period (not shown), the mobile station is allocated uplink timeslots #1,#2 for transmission of an uplink RTTI block, these slots being defined as the "corresponding slot pair" or "corresponding PDCH (packet data channel) - pair" to the downlink pair consisting of timeslots #1,#2. While in this example, the uplink slots are the same as for the downlink slots used to transmit USFs for the purpose of uplink allocation, this is not always the case with RTTI allocations. USFs in RTTI USF mode are sent like RTTI blocks (i.e.
- RTTI allocation where two BTTI USFs are used to allocate two RTTI blocks. Specifically, a first BTTI USF is used to allocate an RTTI radio block in the first two frames of the four frames that follow the two BTTI USFs, and a second BTTI USF is used to allocate an RRTI block in the second two frames of the four frames the follow the two BTTI USFs.
- a poll by the network using the RRBP(Reserved Radio Block Period) or ES/P (EGPRS Supplementary/Polling) fields in the header of a downlink block performed two functions:
- the uplink blocks to be sent by the mobile station in response to a poll are always control blocks sent on the PACCH (Packet Associated Control Channel), typically the response being a downlink ACK/NACK (acknowledgement/negative acknowledgement) message such as an EGPRS Packet Downlink ACK/NACK message.
- PACCH Packet Associated Control Channel
- the response message must be sent on the same timeslot number as that on which the poll was received.
- a network is indicated at 10
- a mobile station is indicated at 12.
- the network 10 is shown transmitting a poll for PACCH block at 14 in Frame #x, and Timeslot #n.
- the poll is indicated by the contents of the RRBP, ES/P fields.
- the Frame #x and Timeslot #n simply represent the frame number and timeslot number, as selected by the network, in which the first burst of the radio block containing the poll is transmitted.
- the mobile station 12 transmits a PACCH block (e.g. EGPRS Packet Downlink ACK/NACK) as indicated at 16 starting in Frame #y, Timeslot #n.
- the Frame #y and Timeslot #n represent the frame number and timeslot number used by the mobile station to transmit the first burst of the radio block containing the response to the poll.
- Timeslot #n is the same as that used by the network to transmit the poll.
- frame numbers x and y is explicitly specified by the poll message (see e.g. 10.4.4b, 10.4.5 in 3GPP TS 44.060).
- a poll In 3GPP Release 7, the possibility was added for a poll to indicate that the mobile shall transmit an RLC/MAC data block with a Piggy-backed ACK/NACK bitmap field (PAN). This is requested by the appropriate setting of bits within the newly defined CES/P (Combined EGPRS Supplementary/Polling) field.
- PAN Piggy-backed ACK/NACK bitmap field
- Such a poll is included in a downlink data block and points to a frame where the poll response starts.
- a poll can be sent in BTTI mode, meaning in the same slot for four frames, or RTTI mode, meaning on a pair of slots for two frames.
- the mobile station knows whether the uplink reserved block uses RTTI or not and can figure out where to send the response.
- allocations for uplink radio resources for the transmission of data blocks are signaled by means of the USF which are sent in the radio block period immediately preceding the radio block period in which the uplink allocations are valid, as detailed above.
- polls that request an uplink transmission in a given radio block period are sent much earlier than USFs which allocate resources in the same radio block period. It is possible that a poll and a USF may refer to the same uplink transmission opportunity. This is taken into account by the network when performing scheduling.
- a mobile station is assigned one or more timeslots in the uplink direction (i.e. has an uplink TBF ongoing), and the mobile station has been polled by the network and ordered to send an RLC data block together with a PAN in a given radio block period, it may not be possible (or at least, may be very difficult) for the mobile station to encode data blocks correctly in advance of the decoding of the USF fields which allocate resources in the radio block period in which the response to the poll is sent, if the mobile station is required to obey both a block sequencing rule and a PAN timeslot rule as follows:
- the block sequencing rule is currently mandated in many cases in respect of data blocks sent using unacknowledged mode operation. See for example 3GPP TS 44.060 9.3.3.0. It is not clear from 3GPP TS 44.060 v7.15.0 whether there is any specific restriction on which timeslot the RLC data block containing PAN is to be transmitted in the uplink direction in the case where the mobile station is allocated, by means of USF signalling, one or more uplink radio blocks in the radio block period in which the poll response is to be sent, in addition to the radio block allocated by the poll.
- RLC Data Blocks are typically encoded before the number of uplink blocks that are allocated to the mobile station is known (i.e. before the USFs which signal the uplink allocation have been decoded).
- the block sequencing rule and the PAN timeslot rule must be followed in respect of polls for PAN, the mobile station will not be able to determine which data block should have a PAN combined with it when the blocks are encoded in advance of knowing the number of uplink timeslots allocated to the mobile station is known, because the location of the PAN depends on how many uplink timeslots are allocated to the mobile station which have a lower-number timeslot number than the timeslot number on which the poll was received.
- the network transmits a poll for RLC data block + PAN in timeslot #2 at 100. Later, the network transmits a block containing a USF indicating an uplink assignment for timeslot #2 at 102.
- the USF refers to the same timeslot as the poll, assuming the response to the poll needs to be on the same timeslot.
- BSN block sequence number
- An embodiment is provided that gives the mobile station the option of being able to encode a data block in advance of receiving the USF which triggers the transmission of that data block notwithstanding receipt of a poll for a data block plus PAN.
- the configuration of the mobile station to act in this way is achieved through the installation of appropriate this software, firmware, hardware on the mobile device during device manufacture or device provisioning.
- the mobile station is configured to behave in this way through over the air signalling.
- the embodiment described herein refer to a requirement or configuration of the mobile station to allow it to transmit blocks out of sequential order, i.e. not according to sequential block sequence number, such that a block with a higher block sequence number may be transmitted before a block with a lower block sequence number. More generally, embodiments corresponding with this embodiment are provided in which this configuration or requirement is replaced with a configuration or requirement of the mobile station to allow it to transmit blocks out of the particular order, whatever that may be.
- the particular order may or may not be in sequential order of block sequence number. This can allow for retransmissions for example. Transmitting out of sequential order is a special case of transmitting out of a particular order.
- the mobile station in order to allow the mobile station the option of being able to encode data blocks in advance, is configured to transmit a response to a poll containing a PAN using an uplink timeslot having the same timeslot number as used for the poll, and to be allowed to send out of order RLC data blocks within a radio block period where it is responding to a poll for PAN.
- the network might have to re-order blocks received in such a radio block period.
- the mobile station behaviour is the same as in Figure 2 .
- the mobile station response is as depicted in Figure 5 .
- the timeslot numbering is respected, as the PAN is transmitted in timeslot #2, the same number as the timeslot used for the poll.
- a flowchart of a method corresponding to this embodiment is shown in Figure 7 .
- the method begins at block 11-1 with receiving over a wireless channel a poll for an RLC/MAC data block plus PAN.
- the mobile station is configured to transmit a response to a poll for an RLC/MAC data block plus a PAN using an uplink timeslot having the same timeslot number as used for the poll.
- the mobile station is configured to be allowed to send out of order RLC data blocks within a radio block period where it is responding to a poll for PAN.
- the mobile station transmits the RLC/MAC data block including the PAN in accordance with the configuration of the mobile device.
- the method further includes the mobile 20 station encoding the RLC/MAC data block including a PAN in advance of knowing which, if any, USF will be received to allocate an uplink data block transmission in the same timeslot allocated by the poll, and in advance of knowing which, if any, USF will be received to allocate uplink data block transmission in any timeslot lower than the timeslot allocated by the poll within the same block period.
- Table 1 below contains a summary of the rules applicable to the embodiment, and some advantages/disadvantages that may be realised. Table 1 - summary of embodiment Embodiment or Example Blocks sent in sequence? PAN send on same timeslot number as poll? Advantages Disadvantages First Embodiment Maybe not Y Easier for network: the timeslot on which the PAN will occur is deterministic Network is required to re-order uplink blocks before evaluating whether blocks are missing
- the principle benefit is that the mobile is able to (but not necessarily required to) encode RLC/MAC data blocks, including PAN(s) as required, in advance of knowing which (if any) USFs will be sent to allocate uplink resources.
- the above described embodiment assumes that a mobile station receiving an allocation or poll on timeslot #n is expected to transmit on timeslot #n, subject to the exceptions detailed to deal with the RLC/MAC data block + PAN situation. This is applicable, for example, to the BTTI allocation described in the background.
- the embodiment is also generally applicable to pair-wise allocation in which case a mobile station receiving an allocation or poll on a pair of downlink timeslots is expected to transmit on a corresponding pair of uplink timeslots.
- the timeslot numbers of the downlink timeslot-pairs and the timeslot numbers of the corresponding uplink timeslot-pairs on which responses are sent need not be the same, but there is a predetermined relationship in the timeslot numbers for the uplink timeslot-pairs to the downlink timeslot-pairs. This is the case, for example, with RTTI (reduced transmission time interval) allocations.
- the allocated uplink slots correspond with the downlink slots containing USF, but the nature of the correspondence is different.
- the corresponding slots have the same slot number.
- the corresponding slots do not necessarily have the same slot number. Therefore, for RTTI implementations, references to "same timeslot number" applicable to BTTI can be taken to refer to "corresponding timeslot-pair”.
- 3GPP specifications also refer to "PDCH-pair" which is essentially synonymous with "timeslot-pair”.

- RF radio frequency
- Operating system software executed by the microprocessor 128 is in some embodiments stored in a persistent store, such as the flash memory 116, but may be stored in other types of memory devices, such as a read only memory (ROM) or similar storage element.
- system software, specific device applications, or parts thereof may be temporarily loaded into a volatile store, such as the RAM 118.
- Communication signals received by the wireless device 100 may also be stored to the RAM 118.
- a personal information manager (PIM) application module 130C may also be installed on the wireless device 100 during manufacture.

- DSP digital signal processor
- LOs local oscillators
- the communication subsystem 170 having the transmitter 152 and the receiver 150 includes functionality for implementing the embodiment described above in detail. The specific design and implementation of the communication subsystem 170 is dependent upon the communication network in 15 which the wireless device 100 is intended to operate.
- the communication subsystem 170 of the wireless device 100 may be designed to operate with the Mobitex", DataTAC” or General Packet Radio Service (GPRS) mobile data communication networks and also designed to operate with any of a variety of voice communication networks, such as Advanced Mobile Phone Service (AMPS), Time Division Multiple Access (TDMA), Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA), Personal Communications Service (PCS), Global System for Mobile Communications (GSM), etc. Examples of CDMA include 1X and lx EV-DO.
- the communication subsystem 170 may also be designed to operate with an 802.11 Wi-Fi network, and/or an 802.16 WiMAX network. Other types of data and voice networks, both separate and integrated, may also be utilized with the wireless device 100.
- Network access may vary depending upon the type of communication system. For example, in the MobitexTM and DataTACTM networks, wireless devices are registered on the network using a unique Personal Identification Number (PIN) associated with each device. In GPRS networks, however, network access is typically associated with a subscriber or user of a device. A GPRS device therefore typically has a subscriber identity module, commonly referred to as a Subscriber Identity Module (SIM) card, in order to operate on a GPRS network.
- SIM Subscriber Identity Module
- the wireless device 100 may send and receive communication signals over the communication network 110.
- Signals received from the communication network 110 by the receive antenna 154 are routed to the receiver 150, which provides for signal amplification, frequency down conversion, filtering, channel selection, etc., and may also provide analog to digital conversion. Analog-to-digital conversion of the received signal allows the DSP 158 to perform more complex communication functions, such as demodulation and decoding.
- signals to be transmitted to the network 110 are processed (e.g., modulated and encoded) by the DSP 158 and are then provided to the transmitter 152 for digital to analog conversion, frequency up conversion, filtering, amplification and transmission to the communication network 110 (or networks) via the transmit antenna 156.
- the DSP 158 provides for control of the receiver 150 and the transmitter 152. For example, gains applied to communication signals in the receiver 150 and the transmitter 152 may be adaptively controlled through automatic gain control algorithms implemented in the DSP 158.
- a received signal such as a text message or web page download
- the communication subsystem 170 is input to the microprocessor 128.
- the received signal is then further processed by the microprocessor 128 for an output to the display 126, or alternatively to some other auxiliary I/O devices 106.
- a device user may also compose data items, such as e-mail messages, using the keyboard 114 and/or some other auxiliary I/O device 106, such as a touchpad, a rocker switch, a thumb-wheel, or some other type of input device.
- the composed data items may then be transmitted over the communication network 110 via the communication subsystem 170.
- a voice communication mode In a voice communication mode, overall operation of the device is substantially similar to the data communication mode, except that received signals are output to a speaker 111, and signals for transmission are generated by a microphone 112.
- Alternative voice or audio I/O subsystems such as a voice message recording subsystem, may also be implemented on the wireless device 100.
- the display 126 may also be utilized in voice communication mode, for example, to display the identity of a calling party, the duration of a voice call, or other voice call related information.
- the short-range communications subsystem 102 enables communication between the wireless device 100 and other proximate systems or devices, which need not necessarily be similar devices.
- the short range communications subsystem may include an infrared device and associated circuits and components, or a BluetoothTM communication module to provide for communication with similarly-enabled systems and devices.
- the wireless device 100 is capable of operating in multiple modes such that it can engage in both CS (Circuit-Switched) as well as PS (Packet-Switched) communications, and can transition from one mode of communications to another mode of communications without loss of continuit.y.
- CS Circuit-Switched
- PS Packet-Switched
